Global search sits at the top of every authenticated page. It is the fastest way to jump to a company, contact, or news item without opening a submenu first.
How to use it
- Click the search field in the header or press Ctrl+K (Windows/Linux) or Cmd+K (macOS).
- Type a company name, contact name, keyword, or other query.
- Review matching results for companies, people, news, jobs, and tasks.
- Select a result to open the profile or page.
Recent searches appear as you type, so you can return to earlier queries quickly.

Tips
- Start the product tour from Account if you want a guided introduction to global search.
